All you need to know about Finding Bigfoot

Basically, this show is about four people who wander around the backwoods somewhere in America, listening to eyewitness accounts. One of these people is a skeptic. Two are believers, one of which also models as the sasquatch for scaling purposes.

The other isn’t just a believer. He’s more or less a bigfoot fanatic. Matt Moneymaker pretty much thinks any sound or sign in the woods is bigfoot sign. He’s got a great imagination.

He also knows so many exotic things about bigfoot that you’d think he were something like the Jane Goodall or Dian Fossey of the sasquatches. That’s probably why he’s president of the Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization and you aren’t.

He’s actually a bit like Cliff Clavin.

Here he is explaining to Renae, the professional scientist and skeptic of the team, why bigfoot doesn’t attack cattle:

He may be a kook but he’s a kook who is laughing all the way to the bank! I think I could handle getting paid to tromp around in the woods–even if I did have to act like an ass and make funny noises–how about you?

I love it: “Bigfoot doesn’t attack our cattle, so we don’t kill their deer.” How about: “Bigfoot doesn’t film us, so we won’t try to film Bigfoot.” And we can put this show and “Bayou Billionaires” to bed.

Glad you liked it. I was also impressed with the study that showed that in era’s with high atmospheric CO2, ancient horse species actually shrank–the postulate being that smaller size allowed them to better utilize available oxygen.
